Beg Pardon

The article "NY Nat'l Guard Commissions 1st Greek Orthodox Chaplain" in the Jan. 3, 2007 edition of the Gazette incorrectly stated that the Rev. Dionisios Marketos had been commissioned a First Lieutenant In the New York National Guard. The Rev. Marketos has been commissioned to serve in the New York Guard, a "state defense force", so titled under 32 USC 109 of federal law.

First Lieutenant Peter S. Giakoumis is from the village of Elata, Chios.
